I want to see the Lakers win but I have a feeling that Cleveland will take it this year.

Baseball... it's too early to really pick a favorite. Boston and Tampa are pretty solid choices. A lot of analysts are saying the Cubs but I just don't know if I could go along with that. I don't think the Mets will even win the division let alone the World Series.

For right now, I'll be happy to just see the Yankees struggle.

Cubs are overrated choke artists. The Mets however are probably going to be the best team in the NL this year now that they have a sick bullpen. If anyone catches them in the division it's probably the Marlins. The Phillies already suspect rotation minus Hamels = absence from playoffs this year.

Welp. As per usual we are not on the same page in baseball predictions.

As far as the cavs are concerned, they have a tough road to go through with the playoffs. They have to go through orlando/boston to get to the finals. As much as I hate to say it, the emergence of three really strong teams in the east make them the tougher conference PLAYOFF wise not regular season wise, whereas the lakers have to deal with young or dismantled teams. The spurs just lost ginobli and that's a huge spark for their team.

I see the Lakers going to the finals and winning against boston in seven, orlando in seven, or cavs in six.

April is here and the playoffs (actual relevant basketball) can begin. Simply put the west is still the best. I hope bron bron makes it, so he can get swept again by the varsity teams. Let him have the MVP, it's easy to put up numbers against scrubs. Enjoy playing a sub .500 8th seed.

Baseball is worse than basketball, 162 games come on. Call me in the fall when games start to actually matter. Also, lolindans.
